    Lift the front wheel off the ground and give it a good spin. Could be wheel bearing, disc or pad issue.

    As above. More likely to be a stiff link on the chain.

    Could also be the rear wheel/sprocket bearings

    Ignore my post above, I read it as noise from front end for some unknown reason. Plonker.
